上周开始在得到发现一块叫做“elevate”的软件边玩边学习英语，一直觉得自己的英语水平还凑合着，结果真的玩起来，发现自己的水平原来不是一边的差劲。为了让自己的英语水平能名副其实一些，遂决定还是要花些时间持续的丰富一下自己的英语表达能力。

首先想到的还是englishpod的栏目，里面有揉碎的地道英语表达词汇，难度也适宜，先轻松的学习一下热热身，后续再加码把。
学习的方法：每天半小时时间，一节课程，2遍Englishpod播放，随播放听写下过程中的重点内容，尽量写全，这样残缺的部分就是自己不会的部分，在第二遍中集中再补充。实在补充不上的就是学习的重点。
挑出不不熟悉的单词和用法，再加强记忆。

试行1月时间，观察执行效果。

今天的学习笔记：

不甚明了的单词：
freeway： freeway是真正意义上的高速公路。就是全封闭型的高速公路, freeway除多车道、快车速，多数情况下免费，而且对开车流用草地或土堤绝对分开，有时车e799bee5baa6e58685e5aeb931333431366339辆行驶中看不到对开车，路旁有安全、监测车速及防噪音设施。highway n.公路；大路　highway 也指高速公路，但主要是指大道，干道，一般不封闭.
